Quote from: peteI heard from some Chinese paper that from the first press screening, them journalists weren't too impressed.  the observation was that the film moved at such a fast paced, that people didn't even know it's over until it was over, and that there was only some scattered applause in the end.
hope them's lying.  but the fight in the bamboo forest looks like it's trying a bit too hard.

not lies....Do you know what kinda status now Zhang Yimou is in?He's been tring to make a 2nd-class story artistic...yeah we can see visually beutiful scences but it couldn't make up to the bad storytelling...and from a chinese cultural point of views,some parts of that film are even stupid...

the girl "died" three times in that film...almost everyone in the theatre laughed, that's a silly joke we always talk about here...
and many stupid lines...

well, then those dirty chinamen should go back to their nike factories and make me some shoes instead of laughing at cinematic art.

Is that a kinda threat?
what's the big deal about people laughing at a funny scene in the cinema...cinematic art is another thing...cause I can't find much art in that part, not even moving...

LOL
Falling in love is the greatest joy in life. Followed closely by sneaking into a gated community late at night and firing a gun into the air.
